2007 Ford F-150: EcoBoost cam phasers / timing

2007 Ford F-150 · 13th (2015–2020 aluminum body) · 2.7L EcoBoost V6, 3.5L EcoBoost V6

How you’d notice

Cold-start rattle from the front of the engine that quiets when warm
check-engine light for cam timing. 2.7 and 3.5 EcoBoost. Do not confuse with exhaust tick.

Typical shop cost

Repair	USD
Independent shop, parts and labour, before tax	$1,800–$4,200 USD

As of 2026. Ballpark, not a quote for the vehicle in the ad. USD figures are independent-shop ranges when we’ve entered them — we don’t invent a number.

Common window: 49,680–124,200 miles.

A lift, not a driveway glance. You pay the shop. First appointment of the morning so the engine is cold.

Walk away if

Unrepaired rattle plus asking already at the top of the local market

The bigger picture on this listing

This page is the year and model. The report is the vehicle in the ad. We do not publish, for this listing:

whether these photos don’t show this job
whether the asking price already assumes it
tax on this price
a named shop in this city — we only print phones we’ve checked

That’s the one-listing document. Homework, not an inspection.
